        Actually, it was really hard for an RQ3 sorcerer, for whom relearning meant relearning, which took a minimum of 50 or 100 hours, I think. Not as dangerous as for a spirit magician, but not always easier.

        However, RQ3 sorcerery magic items conferred knowledge of the spell when held, but no casting %age. So, while almost useless to someone who didn't know the spell (and thus got a great magic bonus chance to cast it), sorcerers could use magic items as an alternative to keeping things in mind.
